Ukrainian non-financial organization "Aerial Reconnaissance" continues to effectively use a drone R18 of its own design.
What we know
On the page of "Aerial Reconnaissance" in Facebook there is a video that demonstrates how the operators used a shock drone to destroy camouflaged equipment of Russian occupants.
This is far from the first and hopefully not the last video of the elimination of enemy equipment using a drone costing about $20,000. The octocopter can carry grenades weighing up to 5 kg and is focused on destroying artillery, air defense and staff vehicles. But there is a video, which confirms that R18 can destroy even a tank.
